Robert Rabin, one of the key leaders of the peace
movement in Vieques, was given an unconscionably lengthy jail
sentence of six (6) months yesterday by magistrate judge Gustavo
Gelpi of the federal district court in Puerto Rico.  Gelpi also
sentenced attorney Hiram Lozada Pérez, President of the Civil Rights
Commission of the Puerto Rican Bar Association, to four (4) months in
jail, and sentenced Iván Elías Rodríguez and Oscar Charriez to one
hundred days in jail.  Gelpi additionally imposed fines on them.
Their crimes? A misdemeanor for trespassing by entering the bombing
range in Vieques. As he has done with other protesters, Gelpi's
sentencing went beyond what the prosecutors recommended.  Other key
leaders of the Vieques peace movement have also received absurdly
lengthy prison sentences, for example, Vieques Mayor Damaso Serrano
(4 months), Vieques Fishermen Association's President Carlos Zenon (6
months), and others.]
